Live and act
Hayne showed an interest in the plant world from an early age. From 1778 to 1796 he worked as a pharmacist in Berlin; he was acquainted with the botanist Carl Ludwig Willdenow of about the same age , who was also a pharmacist in Berlin for a time. From 1797 he carried out "botanical-technical orders" for the factories department of the Prussian government.
From 1801 to 1808 he worked in Schönebeck (Elbe) ; here he was an assistant in the "Royal Prussian Chemical Factory" (today Hermania ), which was founded in 1793 by the pharmacist Carl Samuel Hermann as the first German chemical factory . During his time in Schönebeck he examined the structure and ingredients of plants and the flora in the area.
Through the Peace of Tilsit in 1807 the Kingdom of Prussia lost about half of its territory, including all areas west of the Elbe. This prompted Hayne to return to Berlin in 1808. From 1811 he taught at the University of Berlin as a "public teacher of botany"; In 1814 he was appointed associate professor. In 1822 he was elected a member of the Leopoldina . After many years of teaching, he did not become a full professor for pharmaceutical botany until 1828. In addition to lecturing, he led numerous botanical excursions. He was also known for the consistency with which he enforced the use of the correct technical terms ("termini botanici") in plant descriptions.
Over a period of about 30 years, Hayne produced around 600 copper plates with depictions of (mainly pharmaceutically interesting) plants.
